Willie Peeters is one of the most popular and richest Mixed Martial Artist who was born on October 26, 1965 in Netherlands.

Peeters started his career in amateur wrestling at the age of ten, training with famed champion Freddy Winters and winning several junior competitions across Europe. At sixteen, he moved to the Oyama Gym in Amsterdam, where he trained judo under Chris Dolman and Willem Ruska, as well as kickboxing under Jan Lomulder, and finally Kyokushin karate, winning a heavyweight championship. In 1991, after talking about his interest in mixed martial arts, Dolman invited him to his team in Fighting Network RINGS in order to compete in both MMA and professional wrestling in Japan.

Peeters would develop a rivalry with Wataru Sakata in a long series of shootfighting bouts. Peeters defeated Wataru by TKO on their first fight On November 16, 1995, and they went to fight a rematch in June 29, 1996. During the latter, Sakata released late a toehold, injuring Peeters, who retaliated by illegally knocking him out with a close-fisted punch, gaining a red card. Still, Peeters would win by KO due palm strikes. The two met again on August 24, where Peeters dominated in a grappling contest and defeated Sakata north/south choke. Willie would face Sakata again under different rules in a RINGS Holland event on February 8, 1998, but although Wataru performed dominantly for the first time, he lost a controversial decision, as the Dutch referee invalidated a finishing hold by Sakata while allowing Peeters to throw illegal strikes. Peeters finally lost to Sakata on June 27 by ankle lock.
